RESUMO
Background: An elevated lipoprotein insulin resistance (LP-IR) score corresponds to insulin resistance in adults with overweight and obesity, yet data are lacking regarding the impact of exercise interventions on LP-IR. The purpose of this secondary analysis was to evaluate the effects of a weight loss and weight maintenance intervention on LP-IR score in adults with overweight and obesity. Methods: Thirty sedentary adults with overweight and obesity completed a 10-week OPTIFAST® weight loss program with supervised aerobic exercise to achieve clinical weight loss (CWL) (≥7% from baseline). Aerobic exercise volume increased weekly until 700 MET min/week was reached. Participants who reached CWL were randomized to groups at volumes at either physical activity (PA-REC) or weight maintenance (WM-REC) recommendations (weeks 11-28). Plasma blood samples were analyzed via nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy at baseline, after weight loss (week 10), and following weight maintenance (week 28). Results: Following the weight loss phase, on average, participants significantly (p < 0.001) reduced LP-IR score (-12.1 ± 13.5), body weight (-8.9 ± 2.7%), and waist circumference (-7.7 ± 4.1 cm). During the weight maintenance phase, there were no changes in LP-IR score between exercise groups (PA-REC: 4.1 ± 13.6; WM-REC: -2.0 ± 11.2; P = 0.7). The PA-REC group had improvements in LP-IR score from baseline (49.8 ± 24.6 to 36.6 ± 27.6, P < 0.001), yet there were no within-group changes during the weight maintenance phase (P > 0.05). Conclusion: LP-IR score improved during weight loss in adults with overweight and obesity and were sustained during the weight maintenance phase in the PA-REC group. Aerobic exercise at least at minimum guidelines following CWL can preserve LP-IR score improvements and may indicate a reduced T2DM risk in adults with overweight and obesity.
RESUMO
BACKGROUND: This study sought to identify factors that contribute to disparities in access to bariatric surgery in North Carolina (NC). METHODS: Using the rate of bariatric surgery in the county with the best health outcome as the reference, we calculated the Surgical Equity Index (SEI) in the remaining counties in NC. RESULTS: Approximately 2.95 million individuals (29%) were obese in NC. There were 992 (.5%) bariatric procedures performed on a population of 194 209 individuals with obesity in the Reference County (RC). The mean SEI for bariatric surgery in NC was .47 (SD .17, range .15-.95). A statistically significant difference was observed in 89 counties. Univariable analyses identified the following variables to be significantly associated with the SEI: percent of population living in rural areas (% rural) (relative rate change in SEI [RR] = .994, 95% CI .92-.997; <.0001), median household income (RR = 1.0, 95% CI = 1.0-1.0; P = .0002), prevalence of diabetes (RR = .947, 95% CI .917-.977; .0006), the primary care physician ratio (RR = .995, 95% CI .991-.998; P = .006), and percent uninsured adults (RR = .955, 95% CI .927-.985; P = .003). By multivariable hierarchical regression analysis, only the % rural remained statistically associated with a low SEI (RR = .995 per 1% increase in % rural, 95% CI = .992, .998; P = .0002). DISCUSSION: The percent rural is the most significant predictor of disparities in access to bariatric surgery. For every 1% increase in % rural, the rate of surgery decreased by .5%. Understanding the characteristics of rurality that are barriers to access is crucial to mitigate disparities in bariatric surgical access in NC.
RESUMO
BACKGROUND AND AIM: Elevated fasting plasma lactate concentrations are evident in individuals with metabolic diseases. However, it has yet to be determined if these associations exist in a young, healthy population as a possible early marker for metabolic disease risk. The purpose of this study was to determine if indices of the metabolic syndrome are related to plasma lactate concentrations in this population. METHODS: Fifty (29 ± 7 yr) men (n = 19) and women (n = 31) classified as overweight (26.4 ± 1.8 kg/m2) participated in this observational study. Blood pressure and blood metabolites were measured after an overnight fast. Lactate was also measured before and after a three-day eucaloric high-fat (70 %) diet. The homeostatic model assessment for insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) was calculated as a measure of insulin resistance. Visceral adipose tissue mass was determined via dual X-ray absorptiometry. RESULTS: Triglycerides (r = 0.55, p=<0.0001), HOMA-IR (r = 0.53, p=<0.0001), and systolic and diastolic (both, r = 0.36, p = 0.01) blood pressures associated with fasting plasma lactate. No differences in visceral adipose tissue existed between the sexes (p = 0.41); however, the relationship between visceral adipose tissue and lactate existed only in females (r = 0.59, p = 0.02) but not in males (p = 0.53). Fasting lactate and HOMA-IR increased in males (p = 0.01 and p = 0.02, respectively), but not females, following a three-day high-fat diet. CONCLUSION: Indices of the metabolic syndrome associated with fasting plasma lactates in young relatively healthy individuals. Fasting lactate also increased in a sex-specific manner after a three-day high fat diet. Thus, lactate could become a clinical marker for metabolic disease risk.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recently issued two statements that 1) maintain that obesity causes diabetes and other expressions of the metabolic syndrome and 2) that imply obesity is the victim's fault. Both statements are incorrect and potentially harmful.

Individuals with insulin resistance and obesity display higher skeletal muscle production of nonoxidized glycolytic products (i.e., lactate), and lower complete mitochondrial substrate oxidation to CO2. These findings have also been observed in individuals without obesity and are associated with an increased risk for metabolic disease. The purpose of this study was to determine if substrate preference is evident at the earliest stage of life (birth) and to provide a clinical blood marker (lactate) that could be indicative of a predisposition for metabolic disease later. We used radiolabeled tracers to assess substrate oxidation and insulin sensitivity of myogenically differentiated mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), a proxy of infant skeletal muscle tissue, derived from umbilical cords of full-term infants. We found that greater production of nonoxidized glycolytic products (lactate, pyruvate, alanine) is directly proportional to lower substrate oxidation and insulin sensitivity in MSCs. In addition, we found an inverse relationship between the ratio of complete glucose oxidation to CO2 and infant blood lactate at 1 mo of age. Collectively, considering that higher lactate was associated with lower MSC glucose oxidation and has been shown to be implicated with metabolic disease, it may be an early indicator of infant skeletal muscle phenotype.NEW & NOTEWORTHY In infant myogenically differentiated mesenchymal stem cells, greater production of nonoxidized glycolytic products was directly proportional to lower substrate oxidation and insulin resistance. Glucose oxidation was inversely correlated with infant blood lactate. This suggests that innate differences in infant substrate oxidation exist at birth and could be associated with the development of metabolic disease later in life. Clinical assessment of infant blood lactate could be used as an early indicator of skeletal muscle phenotype.

Arterial stiffness is improved by weight loss. However, no data exist on the impact of aerobic exercise levels on arterial stiffness during weight maintenance. Adults who were overweight or with obesity (N = 39) participated in a 10-week weight loss program. Participants who achieved ≥7% weight loss were randomized to aerobic training at the minimum physical activity guidelines (PA-REC, 550 MET min/week) or weight maintenance guidelines (WM-REC, 970 MET min/week) for 18 additional weeks. Arterial stiffness (carotid-to-femoral pulse wave velocity [cfPWV], augmentation index normalized for 75 beats/min [AIX75]) and blood pressure [aortic and brachial]) were assessed at baseline, the end of the weight loss phase (week 10), and follow-up (week 28). There was a reduction in cfPWV in participants who met the weight loss goal (-0.34 m/s, p = .02) and approached significance for the entire sample (p = .051). Similarly, there were reductions in AIX75, brachial blood pressure, and aortic blood pressure (p < .05) in the full sample. In the weight maintenance phase, no differences were observed between the PA-REC and the WM-REC groups for change in arterial stiffness or blood pressure (p > .05). However, changes in cfPWV were independently associated with changes in LDL (r2 : 0.45, p = .004) and exercise intensity (r2 : 0.17, p = .033). Aerobic exercise level at the minimum physical activity guidelines or weight maintenance guidelines does not affect the change in PWV or the change in cfPWV after clinically significant weight loss. However, interventions which limit increases in LDL cholesterol and promote high-intensity aerobic exercise may prevent increases in stiffness during weight maintenance.

BACKGROUND: Prior literature has demonstrated that bariatric surgery is a safe approach for patients with morbid obesity. However, the relationship between body mass index (BMI) and risk of mortality in these patients has not been fully elucidated. Primary objective of this study was to evaluate the relationship between BMI and risk of mortality using data obtained from a national database, with a special focus on patients with BMI ≥ 70.0 kg/m2. METHODS: A retrospective cohort study of patients with morbid obesity (BMI ≥ 40 kg/m2) undergoing first-time bariatric surgery between 2015 and 2018 was performed using data from the Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery Accreditation and Quality Improvement Program. Primary outcome was intra-operative death or death within 30 days post-operatively. Patients were categorized into quartiles according to BMI. Multivariable analysis was performed to evaluate the association of BMI with risk of mortality. Relative risk (RR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) are provided as measures of strength of association and precision, respectively. RESULTS: A total of 463, 436 patients were included with a 30-day mortality rate of 0.11%. Mean BMI (SD) was 48.2 (7.3) kg/m2; 1.5% of patients had BMI ≥ 70.0 kg/m2. On multivariable analysis, highest quartile patients had a significantly higher risk of mortality than lowest quartile patients. For patients with BMI ≥ 70.0 kg/m2, the risk of mortality was more pronounced with an eightfold increase compared to the lowest quartile. In patients with BMI ≥ 70.0 kg/m2, although sleeve gastrectomy (SG) was the most common procedure, the risk of mortality was significantly higher in patients undergoing Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB). CONCLUSIONS: BMI is associated with increased risk of 30-day mortality. The effect of BMI is more pronounced in patients with BMI ≥ 70.0 kg/m2. In these patients, RYGB is associated with increased risk of mortality compared to SG.

Obesity impairs the gastrointestinal microbiome (GM) and may promote micronutrient deficiencies. Bariatric surgery (BS), the most efficacious treatment for severe obesity, produces sustained weight loss and improvements in obesity-related comorbidities, but might not fully restore microbial balance. Moreover, BS may result in deleterious consequences that affect weight loss and further intensify post-operative micronutrient deficiencies. To date, the use of probiotics appears to be associated with greater weight loss in bariatric patients, improved vitamin synthesis and availability, and decreased instances of small intestinal bacterial overgrowth. Thus, manipulation of the GM through probiotics represents a promising therapeutic approach in bariatric patients. This review aims to highlight the benefits of using probiotics in bariatric surgical patients by addressing the impact of probiotics on the GM, how BS impacts the microbial environment, associations between gastrointestinal dysbiosis and negative health outcomes, how BS contributes to dysbiosis, and how probiotics may prove efficacious in treating patients who undergo Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB). Based on currently available data, the role of microbial manipulation post-RYGB through probiotics has shown great potential, but a further clinical investigation is warranted to better understand their efficacy.

PURPOSE: Metabolic surgery dramatically improves type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). In 2017, the American Diabetes Association (ADA) recommended metabolic surgery as the optimal treatment for patients with T2DM and Body Mass Index (BMI) > 40. We sought to evaluate whether or not that recommendation is being implemented. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the trend of bariatric surgery 2 years prior and 2 years following the ADA statement. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A retrospective analysis of primary bariatric procedures on patients with class III obesity (BMI > 40 kg/m2) and T2DM performed between 2015 and 2018, using the Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery Accreditation Quality and Improvement Project (MBSAQIP) database. RESULTS: From 2015 to 2018, 164,535 patients with T2DM underwent bariatric surgery. The majority had a BMI > 40 kg/m2 (n = 117,422, 71.4%) and most were not using insulin. Majority of the patients with T2D and class III obesity were female (72.1%), Caucasian (71.5%), and mean age (SD) 48.5 (11.5). Although the numbers of patients with T2DM and class III obesity increased during this time period, there was not a significant change in the overall percentage of patients who were treated with surgery: from 25.99% in 2015 to 24.96% in 2018. In addition, this group is associated with higher rates of complications and mortality compared to patients with BMI > 40 kg/m2 without T2DM. CONCLUSION: Utilization of metabolic surgery in patients with obesity and T2DM has not improved following the updated 2017 ADA guidelines. There is a clear need for more awareness of these guidelines among providers, patients, and the public.

BACKGROUND: Reporting high-quality bariatric surgery outcomes depends on participant attrition and level of study participation among enrolled participants. OBJECTIVES: Our aims are to report participant attrition, active enrollment, and level of participation, and to evaluate pre-surgery sociodemographic, physical health, and psychosocial factors as predictors of attrition and level of participation through 5 years. SETTING: The Longitudinal Assessment of Bariatric Surgery-2 study which enrolled 2458 adults undergoing a first bariatric surgical procedure at 1 of 6 US cites from 2006 through 2009. METHODS: In-person research assessments were conducted pre-surgery and annually for five years. Extensive retention strategies including offering remote assessments (telephone, email, mail, or a combination) were fully implemented in 2009. Among living participants, including those inactivated, annual follow-up assessments were categorized as in-person, remote or missed through 5 years. RESULTS: By year 5, 1.7% of participants had died and 3.2% had withdrawn or were inactivated by the study staff; thus, attrition was 4.9% (n = 121). Controlling for site and calendar year, missed assessments increased from 14.7%-21.8% between years 1 and 2 and then stayed relatively stable (20.8%-19.6%) for years 3-5. Younger age, male sex, White race, lower body mass index, smoking, illicit drug use, and higher weight loss expectations preoperatively were independently associated with a higher likelihood of a missed versus in-person assessment across follow-up. CONCLUSION: The LABS-2 participant attrition was low. The percentage of missed assessments did not increase after year 2, perhaps due to implementation of a comprehensive retention plan. Predictors of missed assessments highlight subgroups to target for focused retention efforts.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate smoking history and change in smoking behavior, from 1 year before through 7 years after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) surgery, and to identify risk factors for post-surgery smoking. BACKGROUND: Smoking behavior in the context of bariatric surgery is poorly described. METHODS: Adults undergoing RYGB surgery entered a prospective cohort study between 2006 and 2009 and were followed up to 7 years until ≤2015. Participants (N = 1770; 80% female, median age 45 years, median body mass index 47âkg/m2) self-reported smoking history pre-surgery, and current smoking behavior annually. RESULTS: Almost half of participants (45.2%) reported a pre-surgery history of smoking. Modeled prevalence of current smoking decreased in the year before surgery from 13.7% [95% confidence interval (CI) = 12.1-15.4] to 2.2% (95% CI = 1.5-2.9) at surgery, then increased to 9.6% (95% CI = 8.1-11.2) 1-year post-surgery and continued to increase to 14.0% (95% CI = 11.8-16.0) 7-years post-surgery. Among smokers, mean packs/day was 0.60 (95% CI = 0.44-0.77) at surgery, 0.70 (95% CI = 0.62-0.78) 1-year post-surgery and 0.77 (95% CI = 0.68-0.88) 7-years post-surgery. At 7-years, smoking was reported by 61.7% (95% CI = 51.9-70.8) of participants who smoked 1-year pre-surgery (n = 221), 12.3% (95% CI = 8.5-15.7) of participants who formerly smoked but quit >1 year pre-surgery (n = 507), and 3.8% (95% CI = 2.1-4.9) of participants who reported no smoking history (n = 887). Along with smoking history (ie, less time since smoked), younger age, household income <$25,000, being married or living as married, and illicit drug use were independently associated with increased risk of post-surgery smoking. CONCLUSION: Although most adults who smoked 1-year before RYGB quit pre-surgery, smoking prevalence rebounded across 7-years, primarily due to relapse.

Introduction: Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) is an effective treatment for type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) that can result in remission of clinical symptoms, yet mechanisms for improved skeletal muscle health are poorly understood. We sought to define the impact of existing T2DM on RYGB-induced muscle transcriptome changes. Methods: Vastus lateralis biopsy transcriptomes were generated pre- and 1-year post-RYGB in black adult females with (T2D; n = 5, age = 51 ± 6 years, BMI = 53.0 ± 5.8 kg/m2) and without (CON; n = 7, 43 ± 6 years, 51.0 ± 9.2 kg/m2) T2DM. Insulin, glucose, and HOMA-IR were measured in blood at the same time points. ANCOVA detected differentially expressed genes (p < 0.01, fold change < |1.2|), which were used to identify enriched biological pathways. Results: Pre-RYGB, 95 probes were downregulated with T2D including subunits of mitochondrial complex I. Post-RYGB, the T2D group had normalized gene expression when compared to their non-diabetic counterparts with only three probes remaining significantly different. In the T2D, we identified 52 probes upregulated from pre- to post-RYGB, including NDFUB7 and NDFUA1. Conclusion: Black females with T2DM show extensive downregulation of genes across aerobic metabolism pathways prior to RYGB, which resolves 1 year post-RYGB and is related to improvements in clinical markers. These data support efficacy of RYGB for improving skeletal muscle health, especially in patients with T2DM.

PURPOSE: The aim of this study is to evaluate the change in rate of increase of bariatric surgery performed compared to the growth of obesity and severe obesity in the United States (US). MATERIALS AND METHODS: The number of primary adult bariatric procedures performed in the US between 2015 and 2018 was obtained from the Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery Accreditation Quality and Improvement Project (MBSAQIP) database. The US Census database was used to derive age-adjusted obesity and severe obesity prevalence among adults. Prevalence of bariatric surgery, by year, was estimated as the ratio of the number of patients undergoing surgery and the projected number of eligible individuals for that year. RESULTS: There were 627,386 bariatric procedures performed for body mass index (BMI) ≥ 30 kg/m2, of which 73.3% (n = 459,800) were performed for BMI ≥ 40 kg/m2. Although the rate of obesity increased by 3.32% per year during this period (RR = 1.0332 per year increase; 95% CI = 1.0313, 1.0352), the rate of surgery per eligible population increased by only 2.47% (RR = 1.0247 per year increase; 95% CI = 1.0065, 1.0432). The prevalence of severe obesity increased from 7.70% (n = 17,494,910) in 2015 to 9.95% (n = 23,135,039) in 2018 while the prevalence of surgery decreased from 0.588 per 100 eligible population in 2015 to 0.566 per 100 eligible population in 2018. CONCLUSION: The rate of utilization has not kept up with the rate of increase in this disease, our costliest illness. There is a strong need to educate the public, healthcare professionals, insurance carriers, and legislators.

BACKGROUND: Postbariatric hypoglycemia (PBH) can be a devastating complication for which current therapies are often incompletely effective. More information is needed regarding frequency, incidence, and risk factors for PBH. OBJECTIVES: To examine hypoglycemia symptoms following Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) and laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding (LAGB) and baseline and in-study risk factors. SETTING: Multicenter, at 10 US hospitals in 6 geographically diverse clinical centers. METHODS: A prospective, longitudinal cohort study of adults undergoing RYGB or LAGB as part of clinical care between 2006 and 2009 were recruited and followed until January 31, 2015, with baseline and annual postoperative research assessments. We analyzed baseline prevalence and post-operative incidence and frequency of self-reported hypoglycemia symptoms as well as potential preoperative risk factors. RESULTS: In all groups, postoperative prevalence of hypoglycemia symptoms was 38.5%. Symptom prevalence increased postoperatively from 2.8%-36.4% after RYGB in patients without preoperative diabetes (T2D), with similar patterns in prediabetes (4.9%-29.1%). Individuals with T2D had higher baseline hypoglycemia symptoms (28.9%), increasing after RYGB (57.9%). Hypoglycemia symptoms were lower after LAGB, with 39.1% reported hypoglycemia symptoms at only 1 postoperative visit with few (4.0%) having persistent symptoms at 6 or more annual visits. Timing of symptoms was not restricted to the postprandial state. Symptoms of severe hypoglycemia were reported in 2.6-3.6% after RYGB. The dominant risk factor for postoperative symptoms was preoperative symptoms; additionally, baseline selective serotonin (SSRI) and serotonin-norepinephrine (SNRI) reuptake inhibitor use was also associated with increased risk in multivariable analysis. Weight loss and regain were not related to hypoglycemia symptom reporting. CONCLUSION: Hypoglycemia symptoms increase over time after RYGB, particularly in patients without diabetes. In a small percentage, symptoms can be persistent or severe and require hospitalization. Preoperative hypoglycemia symptoms and SSRI/SNRI use in RYGB patients without diabetes is associated with increased risk of symptoms.

Bariatric surgery has been shown to improve cognition in patients with severe obesity. Bariatric surgery may improve mental function in patient populations with obesity and with cognitive impairment, including nonacquired, dementia, and traumatic brain injury, although studies have been limited. Bariatric surgery provides an opportunity to explore the effects of obesity, type 2 diabetes, dyslipidemias, and other expressions of metabolic syndrome on cognition. It offers the unusual opportunity to study patients with these chronic diseases and, later, those without them. This suggests the need for further studies into the effects of bariatric surgery on patient populations with obesity and with cognitive impairment to look at the effects of the continuing metabolic brain damage in people with severe obesity when earlier intervention could be considered.

The broad effects of bariatric/metabolic surgery on virtually every tissue and organ system remain unexplained. Weight loss, although a major factor, does not fully account for the rapid, full, and durable remission of type 2 diabetes, return of islet function, reduction of the prevalence of cancers, increase in gray matter of the brain, and decrease in all-cause mortality. This review supports the thesis that the metabolic syndrome is not a group of separate diseases but rather multiple expressions of a shared defect in the utilization of carbohydrates and lipids. That error is probably caused by a dysmetabolic signal from the foregut, stimulated by food, that limits entry of 2-carbon fragments into the tricarboxylic acid cycle, the accumulation of lactate and, in turn, increases in glucose and insulin. Surgery limits that signal by reducing contact between food and foregut mucosa. Speciation of that signal(s) may offer a new pathway for drug development.
